Electricity+Usage+Reduction

Electricity Usage Reduction Project
There are number of ways to save energy in any building. Students from our Ecology club have researched ways to reduce the energy usage in our school.

We have made more stickers for all of the computer monitors in the building. The stickers ask everyone to turn off monitors when computers are not in use. A computer monitor actually uses more energy than a CPU in sleep mode.

Students have stuck "Turn Off the Lights" reminders above every light switch in the school.The group decided that one way to save energy is to remind everyone in the school to turn off the lights when they are the last person leaving. Most of the light switches in the building send electricity to multiple light fixtures. The students are hoping that by turning off the lights or by only turning on the lights when necessary, that our school will save a significant amount of energy.
